But if they defrost the original Fitz now then how does he save the future?

The future is already changed.

It was defrosted (or spare) Fitz who saved the future by saving Polly and Mack (and thus dying). They were supposed to die in the collapse not Fitz.

Think of it like the deviated timeline in Back To The Future Part 2. Biff changed the past creating a new timeline but the old timeline where he went back in time still exists. The Agents of SHIELD are now in a new timeline where frozen Fitz doesn't have to get to the future to save them.

Bingo. Thats why Jemma told Coulson that Fitz will "find out time isn't fixed, that its a beautiful ever-changing thing".

I'm 10 years a Doctor Who fan. Stuff like this was central to the Steven Moffat era (2010 to 2017) and it still hurts my head to think about this stuff but I'll just shrug it off as Wibbley Wobbly timey whimey.

I've seen the first 10 episodes of season 5, I have not seen episodes 11-22. I plan to watch those episodes and Infinity War (no spoilers, please) this weekend. Between what episodes do I watch the movie, or should I watch it after the season finale? Hard to find an answer online without reading spoilers for the movie or season.

Watch it after the season finale. There’s no link to Infinity War other than a Thanos name drop reference near the end.

Season 6 premiers July 2019.

After Avengers 4 nice.

Just finished a binge watch of the 5 seasons so far. Is the Slingshot mini series worth checking out?

They're free and short so, why not?
They slot in about half way through season 4 when Daisy rejoined S.H.I.E.L.D.

Renewed for a Seventh season. Season Six will air next Summer

My god is this the first time SHIELD got preemptively renewed? Fantastic news for a show that spent too long circling the drain. Hopefully they'll add the budget back after the shoestring season 5...

Hot off the heals too of a report that SHIELD is one of the most popular TV brands in the world:

I think it is the first time it's been preempted for renewal.

That’s fantastic news.
I dropped walking dead last week as it’s beyond watching at this stage so great to see a top notch show get renewed and rightly so.

kerplun k

Nice.
I seen the thread update and half suspected a cancellation announcement post season 6. Delighted to see the opposite. I’m probably been greedy at this point but I’d absolutely love to see an AoS movie, kinda like what the Star Trek franchise used to do with alternating movies and tv shoes. Anyhews, season 7 news is brilliant.

RobbingBandit

I was expecting Stan Lee cameo posts when I seen the update

Bloody fantastic news 2 more years at the very least have enjoyed this show from day one even with the ups and downs the cast are loveable the Hydra arc has been enjoyable on the small screen rather than movies got to experience and explore so much of it.

Man, even as a fan of the show this news was very surprising. Really great news though, it's been so great and incredibly underrated.

Yet apparently not if the stats are to be believed. It definitely had a fandom, vocal if not a ratings smash?

Foxtrol

I wonder how two changes recently might have played into this. The re-organisation at the top of Disney and ABC and the plans to launch Disney+.

For the last few years it looked like ABC didn't want to continue the show but were having their arm twisted to do so. New team could have a different vision/interest in the show and will push it more.

Agents of Shield is one of the few shows that is ripe to transfer their back catalogue over to the new streaming platform. It might make sense to keep the show in the public eye so they can point to the streaming site for people who want to catch up on the old episodes and also potentially have another attempt at a spin-off on the new platform.

New look for Quake

Last season tied in events from the movies. Looking forward to who will be the villain for the next season.

So any word on whether

will be back?

Spoiler at the start but looks good

Well colour me excited; with crossed fingers for some extra money so we're not slumming around grey corridors all over again...

Optimus Prime

That looks good!

Ah now, Coulson was in charge and he got to use his gadgets quite often!

Looking forward to this, haven't been let down by AoS iirc, even if they had some downtime moments.

Mack is a constant downtime, preachy religious charisma drain

Look at those eyes (3 min mark) and say that again :P

The character, not the actor

pixelburp

Mack is definitely the conscience of the group, and sometimes the moralising is laid on a tad too thick, but I put the blame on writers stumbling rather than a core problem with the character himself.

Apparently the rumour mill says season 6 is going to take place 1 year in the future. Presumably meaning they're simply ignoring dealing with Thanos' plans again.

Agent Coulson

A cool Easter egg to AoS in Captain Marvel.

WonderCon Clip.

Mini spoiler in it if you haven't seen anything about the season.

I think it was simply that the name of the show got a mention, right?

pixelburp

Watched that clip and definitely left me with an air of "wait, what the hell?"

The answer to that particular mystery is going to have to be a doozy in terms of credibility.

Still, new AoS coming!

Must... Not... Watch... Trailer!

Must be ages since it's been on, I can't remember who that dark-haired girl is that's with the uniformed SHIELD officer?

I don't think she was in the show before. I'm guessing new character.

Endgame

Not quite the reset we were expecting, Disappointed Coulson wasn't in any of the past scenes, even Mr. Jarvis was included. Just a little Quake in the final battle would have been nice.
it'll be interesting to see if this upcoming season is set 5 years later or not.

Endgame

I haven't watched any trailers yet so not getting their help. Maybe set a while after everyone gets back so the shock of the return is over and people are getting back to regular life. Could mess things up though if they get ahead of the movies and they change their direction

I'm guessing the

infusion of Kree blood to save her, the same that Coulson received to get him back post the first Avengers

‘Ghost Rider’ And ‘Helstrom’

Marvel And Hulu Set Live-Action ‘Ghost Rider’ And ‘Helstrom’ Series; Gabriel Luna To Reprise Role Of Robbie Reyes

Shortly after the announcement of Marvel and Hulu’s live-action Ghost Rider series, Deadline confirmed that Gabriel Luna would be reprising his role as the titular flaming skull antihero. Luna portrayed the character in ABC’s Marvel series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Luna teased his return on Twitter yesterday when he wrote: “Chains a’ rattlin'”. Early this morning he tweeted a skull and flames, continuing to leave us guessing whether or not he would be hopping on the motorcycle again for some demonic action.

He officially confirmed his involvement in the new series on Twitter saying, “It’s an honor to ride again with @Marvel and our new partner @Hulu!”

So does it look like Disney will use Hulu for Marvel shows that are not as family friendly as the ones on Disney + like Falcon and Winter Soldier ?

Luna has since confirmed that this will not be the same iteration of Reyes that appeared in AoS
